If you've installed all the necessary codecs (from the universe
repository on ubuntu; plf on Mandriva), there's very little that can't
be played by  mplayer, or vlc.  Try those first.

If DRM is involved, you'll have to try Windows media player/wine - then
use the "rec" program (part of sox), and the right mixer settings
(gnome-alsamixer) to capture the result to .mp3.
